  Hello, Krista Watson, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia, such as Masonboro Organization (talk · contribs). Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 14:17, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Is there someone I can call? I don't think that my message is coming across. Thanks!

Hello Krista Watson. The nature of your edits gives the impression you have an undisclosed financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. Paid advocacy is a category of conflict of interest (COI) editing that involves being compensated by a person, group, company or organization to use Wikipedia to promote their interests. Undisclosed paid advocacy is prohibited by our policies on neutral point of view and what Wikipedia is not, and is an especially serious type of COI; the Wikimedia Foundation regards it as a "black hat" practice akin to black-hat search-engine optimization.

Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.

Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Krista Watson. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Krista Watson|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Theroadislong (talk) 14:24, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

No I work as a volunteer for this sector of the organization

Then please read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and make the required disclosure on your user page. Theroadislong (talk) 15:53, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Ok. I disclosed that there is relevant affiliation. How do I now publish the page?

You have not added anything to your user page here User:Krista Watson? Theroadislong (talk) 16:56, 19 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Krista Watson. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Masonboro Organization".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. plicit 14:53, 4 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
